Simple, Easy Birthday Ideas
Posted in Toddlers & Preschoolers on 27. Sep, 2009
My oldest daughter just turned four on Friday, so I am in birthday mode right now. I’ve been making cakes, planning her little party, and getting things ready for other family members to come over to celebrate with us on different days. It’s been quite busy around here, that’s for sure.
Since my daughters’ birthdays are six weeks apart, August and September are times that I’m on the lookout for ideas. Though we just finished “birthday season” here, I found this great post from Simple Mom’s blog that I wanted to share. I’ll have to file this one away and pull it out next year, because I love these ideas. My favorite –
“If your toddler delights in story time at the public library, create a party activity in which the guests create a giant card to say “thank you” to the librarians and library staff. If your preschooler is fascinated with fire trucks, invite party guests to make several batches of cookies or other sweet treats to deliver to the local fire department.”
What a great idea! For the rest of Simple Mom’s ideas, you can read A Birthday Alternative: Less Stuff, More Fun. [Simple Mom]
